[Numpy-discussion] Getting a clone copy of the NumPy repository.

[Hector troy]

Hello everyone, I am a newbie on this open source world, and sincerely
trying to make contribution to the development of Numpy. I was trying to
learn about making patches from
http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/dev/gitwash/patching.html  but unable to get
the clone of Numpy repository.

In the terminal error massage shown is -

    $hector at hector:~$ sudo git clone git://github.com/numpy/numpy.git
    [sudo] password for hector:
    Initialized empty Git repository in /home/hector/numpy/.git/
    github.com[0: 207.97.227.239]: errno=Connection timed out
    fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection timed out)
    $hector at hector:~$

My internet is quite good at the moment but unable to understand why am I
getting this error.
Any help regarding this will be extremely helpful and encouraging for me.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Hector

Whenever you think you can or you can't, in either way you are right.
